The Sephora Advent calendar is one of the most coveted gifts, and this year there are two—a premium version and the traditional set. Before you say it: Yes, we’re very much aware that it’s only fall, and Christmas shopping isn’t too high up on our agenda—yet. However, as someone who knows all the best beauty Advent calendars like the back of my hand, I can assure you that the hottest options (i.e., Sephora) tend to sell out well before you commence your annual Love Actually rewatch.

Sephora’s 2025 Advent calendar packs even more full-size makeup, skin care, and hair care goodies, all coming from some of the biggest beauty brands, of course. In fact, we’ve already had a peek, and you’re in for a big treat (scroll down to discover the full breakdown of the products from the lineup).
